When NBC announced that they were bringing back Law & Order, people wondered if Anthony Anderson would reprise his role as Detective Kevin Bernard. Today, it became official that he will be back for at least one season, according to The Hollywood Reporter.
Anderson will be joined by Jeffrey Donovan and Hugh Dancy when the revival debuts on February 24th.
That means we will have twice the Anderson because he will be seen on the legal procedural and on ABC’s black-ish at the same time. That is a lot of Anderson.
For weeks, there have been rumors that Steve Burton was out of General Hospital because he wasn’t going to get the COVID-19 vaccine. Today, he confirmed that his days as Jason Morgan are done. At least as long as they have the vaccine mandate.
In his Instagram video, he said that no one “should lose their livelihood over this.” Call me crazy, but I don’t think anyone should lose their life over COVID-19 if they can get a shot that could prevent that. Not only could it prevent it for them, but also people who really have medical reasons on why they can’t get the shot.
I am sick of the personal freedom bullsh!t. It is not all about you; it is about caring about others besides yourself. Let’s say Burton or Ingo Rademacher got the virus (Burton did), went to work, gave it to a co-worker, and that co-worker died. How would they Feel? We need to protect ourselVes and the people that are vulnerable to the virus.
Stop being selfish, and get the shot. I am fully vaccinated with the booster, and I am fine. So are my friends and family. I didn’t hug my favorite person in the world for over a year until I was vaccinated because she was 7, and I didn’t want to do anything that could harm her. We don’t know how each individual is going to react to the virus. Some are fine, and others don’t survive. I think of the ones that don’t. Plus, we don’t know the long-term effects. How long did it take doctors to discover that Shingles comes from Chickenpox? COVID-19 is too new for us to understand the actual dangers of the virus. It terrifies what we are going to learn about this coronavirus of the next few decades.
Kudos to General Hospital for being the only soap opera that has the mandate. Days of our Lives, The Bold and the Beautiful, and The Young and the Restless need to do better. Sony, what are you waiting for?
Have you been patiently waiting for new episodes of Euphoria and wondered when the drama would come back? HBO announced today that the second season will debut on January 9th. Sadly, you will have to wait a few more days to unwrap this Christmas present.
When it comes to what we can expect, HBO didn’t say much. All they said is, “Amidst the intertwining lives in the town of East Highland, 17-year-old Rue (Zendaya) must find hope while balancing the pressures of love, loss, and addiction.”
So, we will just have to rewatch the trailer for clues.
Last week on Chucky, Junior (Teo Briones) and Devon (Björgvin Arnarson) both lost their moms to the killer doll. Tonight at 10p on Syfy and USA Network, Junior, Devon, Jake (Zackary Arthur), and Lexy (Alyvia Alyn Lind) deal with the ramifications of their deaths in different ways.
Devon is over his fight against Chucky as he prepares for his life without his mom. Junior doesn’t know about Chucky, and he handles his grief differently. Lexy and Jake will continue the war, but how much longer can they do it, and how much more blood needs to be spilled? All I will tell you is that someone doesn’t make it to the credits.
Meanwhile, we get more of Charles Lee Ray (Brad Dourif) and Tiffany’s (Jennifer Tilly) backstory. We might go into the past for that, but in present-day Tiffany collides with Junior’s dad (Devon Sawa) at the funeral. What does she want from the Wheeler family?
All leads to a shocking ending that will make you wish that it was next week to see what happens next.
If you are not watching Chucky, you are missing the best new horror show in a really long time.
Also at 10p, but on NBC is New Amsterdam. It is Max (Ryan Eggold) and Helen’s last day at New Amsterdam (Freema Agyeman). What could go wrong? A superbug invades the hospital, and patients are dying on every floor. Will it be enough to convince them to stay? All I will say is that we will know their decision at the end of the episode.
Michael Strahan had a big announcement today on Good Morning America. On December 9th, he will be traveling to space on Blue Origin.
Just another thing he can add to his varied resume that includes football player, actor, host, and now space traveler.
How did this come about? He covered Jeff Bezos’ inaugural flight, and they asked him if he wanted to do it. What is he going to say no? I wouldn’t. I would jump at the opportunity if I didn’t have to pay for it.
Who else is going to be on the flight with him? Alan Shepard’s, the first man to go to space, daughter Laura Shepard Churchley. They will be joined by Lane and Cameron Bess, who are the first parent and child to go to space at the same time.
Finally, Strahan was offered a stipend, and he is donating to the Boys & Girls Club.
